Rules:
- Replace any question that you dislike with a new question.
- Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.

The first movement of Benjamin Godard's 2nd violin concerto, and Bach's Adagio in G minor, which I'm currently learning. 

What books are you currently reading?
Jeremiah, Agnes Grey, and The Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes.

What's your favorite colour?
Black, grey, white, and blue.  I really like green, too.

What's your favorite hobby?
Listening to music, blogging, watching movies, and reading a good book. 

Sweet or Salty?
Both

2.  Classic literature
3.  Rain
4.  Paper Mate pencils
5.  Weed eaters that work


What's one of your favorite quotes?
"We are plain quiet folk and have no use for adventures.  Nasty disturbing uncomfortable things!  Make you late for dinner!  I can't think what anybody sees in them." - Bilbo Baggins, The Hobbit

What's something you'd like to say to someone right now?
Read Sherlock Holmes!

What are you looking forward to?
Summer vacation!

I tag (if they want to do it):
Gwyn, Sophia, Teresa, Gray, Celtic Traveler, Meg, Faith, Melee and anyone else who wants to do it!
